The team doesn't have a coach, but is led by the legendary bondik, who has been performing on the professional scene for about 15 years. And this is his 14th team in his career, which means quite a lot of experience.

The team has already had a bootcamp with Marix, where they have been practicing for about a few weeks, thanks to which they have been showing good results lately.

Marix's play over the last month

Marix has played 18 maps in the last month, where together with the team they won 56%. And his average rating for all maps was 6.0, which is not bad.

His best map was Nuke, in a match against Spirit Academy at IEM Rio 2024: European Open Qualifier #1, which he finished with a rating of 7.4.

Team Achievements

During the month, the team managed to qualify twice on the second day of qualification for IEM Rio 2024 Europe Open Qualifier 1 and ESL Challenger Atlanta 2024 Europe Open Qualifier.

The team almost made it to the ESL Challenger Atlanta 2024 closed qualifiers, but lost an exit match against Monte in a close game on the third map.
